Mary Kennedy

Mary has been immersed in the practice and study of yoga for the past 25years. Beginning with her first class, she fell in love with the transformation yoga created in her body and mind. She completed her 230 hour teaching certification led by certified Anusara teachers Kelley Gardner, Sarah Faircloth, and Stacy Milner-Collins. She has studied with several prominent teachers, including Christina Sell, Rod Stryker, Sally Kempton, and Doug Keller.  During her first teacher training, Mary was briefly introduced to Ayurveda, a sister science of yoga and a spark was lit.  Upon completion of her 230 certification, she began a 2 year study of “Living Ayurveda” with Cate Stillman.  She continues to study  Ayurveda with Dr. Claudia Welch and Cate Stillman and incorporates her understanding of Ayurveda into her classes and workshops. She is currently completing her 500 YTT with Lizzy Hoffman of Urban Bliss yoga.   Mary teaches workshops, private yoga sessions, and weekly classes.  She is also the co-owner of Melting Point Hot Yoga.  Mary teaches in an encouraging manner which includes an emphasis on alignment with sequencing strategies to help students progress in their individual practices. When not teaching yoga, Mary relishes spending time with her family, pets, and friends. She also enjoys tennis, the mountains, reading, and long walks in nature.
